SuperMan Can’t Cook

It is moments like these where you look at a picture and you see a million words.

What does this awesome T-Shirt from Threadless T-Shirts mean to you? Does it mean SuperMan can not cook or use a microwave? Does it mean to you that the Microwave is too slow and would make a better chair?

I am in awe mostly cause the artist choose something about SuperMan I would never in a million years think of.

Mega Man Knit

With the weather getting colder you want to stay stylish and geeky even when you have to dress warm. Paul figured out a perfect way to celebrate the release of Mega Man 9, be stylish, geeky, and warm!

This might be the point where I learn to knit, or find someone I can ask to knit me an awesome Mega Man Helmet like this one!

Next on the list is Mega Buster Gloves.

Crazy Japanese Rubber Band Gun

Based on the idea of a gun from Metal Gear Solid 4 this crazy cool rubber band gun is solid stainless steal! Which gun this is based on I have no idea but it looks amazing. Watching the youtube video shows off the gun’s accuracy and other features such as a laser sight and a led light built in as well.

The first question that crossed my mind was “where can I buy this fine piece of bad ass fun?” and sadly it is a personally made item so far. The plans are not secret however if you wish to try and replicate it.

Check out the video below.

EA Finally Being Sued Over Spore

Here is the court filled pdf

I can pretend to read the entire document. Though that would be boring, so I will just copy and past quotes from another article I’ll link at the end.

“…Nowhere in any of EA’s discussions, responses or explanations of its DRM did EA disclose that the Spore disk contained a separately-installed, stand-alone, uninstallable DRM program…”

The plaintiff and class seek damages in the amount of monies paid for Spore games, legal fees and other damages that in total amount to over $5 million.

EA is accused of violating the Consumer Legal Remedies Act, unfair competition and interfering with property.

$5 million may sound like a lot but when we are talking about legal action of this scale it isn’t much at all. Think of all those people suffering from DRM issues, this is just a drop in the pond for the suffering.

Star Wars Phone Flashers

\This is a perfect time to advertise things like this with the release of Force Unleashed. Who wouldn’t want a small Darth Vader / Stormtrooper head on your cellphone alerting you to rebel calls!

Lifetime of Debt = 1 Free Soda

Found this picture in the wild. Thought it was awesome cause it is a free soda, maybe a Coke maybe a Pepsi. Now maybe this should think about a USB Drive.

Boxhead Zombies

I am a huge fan of killing zombies.  Sadly it is really had to find real zombies as they do not exsist yet in this world. Often I turn to video game to fill this gap in my life. While waiting for Left 4 Dead I turned my the good people over at CrazyMonkey Games to fill my needs. Boxhead The Zombie Wars.

If you are into popping into a zombie killing fest for a few minutes to several hours this is exactly what you are looking for. However it is limited to the feeling you are killing lego men after a while.
